Nakshatra Nadi Astrology

Nakshatra Nadi Astrology is in fact an extension of Hindu Vedic Astrology, on which lot of research work has been done by various sages and Astro scholars from time to time. It has been presented in their own style in their various works for the better understanding of the readers.

Since long our Sages had been working on the invention of different methods and theories to delineate horoscopes to get precise results. Varga charts theory given by Maha Rishi Prashara has proved to be a great step towards this aim. Ashtakvarga given by Sage Maitreya was also an effort in this direction to understand the subject in a simpler way. Maharishi Jaimini has also set some beautiful rules to pinpoint the predications.

In 20^th sanctuary, Very deep research was done in Stellar Astrology around star lords and sub lords of planets, collectively by N.V.Raghava Chary and Gopala Krishana Row and under the pseudonym ‘Meena’ published a book on Nadi Astrology in early forties.

Some astrologers started working on Vimshottari dasha system and 9 unequal sub divisions of a Nakshatra extending the scope of delineation of a planets with respect to the Nakshatras and their Sub divisions to sub- sub divisions and further to sub- sub- sub divisions in the sequence of Vimshottari dasha system up to praan dasha. The Great Krishnamurthy is known as pilot among the few worked on this theory.

He named these sub divisions following the Vimshottari dasha sequence. First sub division lord will be the same planet which is the lord of that Nakshatra to that we are dividing into 9 unequal parts. Rest of the divisions will be followed as per Vimshottari dasha sequence.

e.g; Suppose a planet the Sun in Aries at 10°00.In Vedic system of astrology we will say Sun in sign Aries. But, in nakshatra paddhati we shall say

Sun in Nak of Ketu and sub of Sat.

Nine divisions of Ashwini Nakshatra. Lord of Ashwini nakshatra is Ketu. If we go through the chart below, we shall find Sun 10° in Sub of Sat

NakshatraAstrology01

So we will write Su as Planet Sun

Nak. lord Ketu

Sub lord Sat

As a student of astrology we know that we have divided our Zodiac of 360° into 12 equal parts of 30° each for our convenience and which are known as signs or Rashis.

Zodiac is also divided into 27 equal parts and these divisions are of 13°20’ (800’) each. These divisions are known as Nakshatras or Constellations.

Every Nakshatra has different atmosphere and different lordship. We are very well aware of the fact that Nakshatra are fixed, but it’s only the planet which moves in different signs & Nakshatra as a guest for a few days or months. It is obvious that guest has to act or live as per the rules fixed by the host (Nakshatra lord). So the Nakshatra lord automatically becomes more powerful than the planet.

On the other hand in our Zodiac 13°20’ is not a small space. According to Vedic theory “One Nakshatra is group of so many stars” and we find that in such a big space, atmosphere and other significations must be different in different parts of Nakshatra.” The guest planet has to adjust itself according to the environment of that part of Nakshatra or environment provided by lord of that part. To judge the location of the planet precisely, Nakshatra is further divided into 9 unequal parts, which are known as sub parts and lord of that each is known as Sub Lord. In that way Sub lord becomes more powerful than the Nakshatra and Nakshatra becomes more powerful than the planets. Now we will write it as:

Sub > nakshatra > Planet

How to calculate area or arc of sub lord:

Now I can see that planet Sun is in Aries is not a complete address. It is just like as we say person ‘A’ lives in Chandigarh.

If, we narrow down the address we will have to give some clue as sun in Aries in the Nakshatra of Ketu. You can say person ‘A’ lives in Chandigarh in sec- 27.

To narrow down further, we will say sun in Aries in Nakshatra of Ketu and sub of sat means person ‘A’ lives in Chandigarh in sec- 27, house no- 2, which seems to be an authentic one or complete address.

Now correct address of sun will be defined as:

The Sun is in Aries in the Nakshatra of Ketu and sub of Sat. It, itself speaks the clear picture of the Sun. We can see that Sun is under the influence of Ketu and Ketu is under the influence of Sat.

Now, as per the rule of the Nakshatra Nadi, Sub lord is >Nak. Lord> Planet. It will be assumed that the Sun will be able to fulfill the promise with the consent of Ketu and Sat. Veto power is with Sat as Sat is Sub lord. Where does the planet Sun alone stand for this nativity? Answer is …..Nowhere.

Hence, you can say you have touched the Nadi of the Sun(Pulse of Sun ) . So, I shall like to name this theory as Nakshatra Nadi Astrology.

Rules of Nakshatra Nadi Astrology

Rule: 1-Planets work under the influence of nakshatra lord and further nakshatra lord works under the influence of Sub lord.

Rule: 2-Planets also work under the influence of planets conjunct with or aspected by.

Rule: 3-Vimshottri dasha is used in Nakshatra Nadi system. While delineating a horoscope, Vimshottari dasha sequence and rules are applied. According to Vimshottari dasha rules:

MD(Maha dasha) > AD(Antara dasha) > PD(Paratayantara dasha) > SD(Sukshama dasha) > PB(Prana dasha)

You can say “any event visible in the horoscope will fructify only if, Maha dasha lord signifies that event and in period of MD lord dasha that event will happen in the period of Antara dasha lord that supports that event, the event supported by MD & AD will fructify during Paratayantara dasha of the planet that signifies that event & so on. In other words, Prana dasha lord is subservient to Sukshama dasha lord, Sukshama dasha lord is subservient to Paratayantara dasha lord, Paratayantara Lord is sub servant to Antara dasha lord and finally, Antara dasha lord is subservient to Maha dasha lord.

Rule: 4- Ayanamsha Value used in Nakshatra Nadi is the value established by the astronomer, NEWCOMB, who believed that both Sayana and Niryana zodiacs coincided in the year 292 AD, and retrograde motion of Vernal Equinox is @ 50.2388475 seconds of arc per year. Whereas, Lahiri theory believes that both the zodiacs coincided in 286 AD. So, select the method of calculation of Ayanamsha in your software as NEWCOMB Ayanamsha or KP- Ayanamsha. But, if you have some horoscope in your hand erected by using Lahiri Ayanamsha or you are to go manually, then you are advised to add 6’ to planets and ascendant degrees. This is because one year creates difference of one minute in degree of Ascendant & Planets. For the help of astrologers, a list of Ayanamsha calculated as per this system is given on a separate page number-

Rule-5: To see the exact view and positions of planets, Nirayana Bhava Chalit chart is considered to be the best location master .For this we used to do a little exercise by drawing Nirayana Bhava Chalit chart. But today we are blessed with the computer software which gives us the required reports & charts with the click of a curser.

How to erect Nirayana Bhava Chalit chart:

Rule:6

All principles of Hindu Vedic Astrology are applied to judge the traditional values and effects on planets by conjunction, aspects and potency.

Rule: 7 Now we have two major charts with us.

1. D-1 (Lagana chart or Ascd. chart)

2 .Nirayana Bhav Chalit chart.

We see influence of conjunction and aspects from Lagana chart.

Owner of Bhava and placement of planets are to be seen from Niryana Bhava Chalit chart.

Rules: 8-As explained in Hindu Vedic Astrology 12^th Bhava of every Bhava destroys the signification of that Bhava. And 2^nd Bhava of every Bhava enhances the significations of that Bhava. But, we have to keep in mind the complimentary house for the different subjects of life.

Education:

1. 3^rd house is complimentary house to 4^th house of education. As it is a house of communication.

2. 10^th house is a complimentary house to 9^th house of higher education as 10^th is a house of awards, name and fame.

3. 4^th house is a complimentary house to 5^th house of creativity and intelligence as 4^th house is a house of basic education.

4. 5^th house is complimentary house to 6^th house of competition as 5th is a house of creativity & intelligence which is required in clearing the compaction.

Carrier:

10^th house of profession is a complimentary house for 11^th house of gains and 11^th is gain of profession.

Vehicle:

3^rd house is a complimentary house for 4^th house of luxury in case of vehicles as 3^rd is a house of movement, driving & short distance.

How to calculate arc of sub lords in Degrees-Minutes-Seconds:

The rules and sequence of Vimshottari dasha are followed in Nakshatra Nadi. So, while dividing a nakshatra in parts, the following formula is being used in calculating the area of particular sub lord:

Sub lord’s dasha years in Vimshottari dasha x Arc of Nak.
Name of the Sub Lord=……………………………………………………………………………… Total years of Vimshottari dasha

Area of one Nakshatra is 13°20’. But, we have to use in minute value. If, we convert 13°20’ in Minutes value it comes as 13×60+20=800 minutes.

Example: Suppose we are to divide first nakshatra of Aries sign, which is Ashwini in name and its Lord is Ketu. As per the Vimshottari dasha sequence; 1^st divisional sub lord will be Ketu, 2^nd sub lord will be Venus, 3^rd Sub lord will be Sun, 4^th sub lord will be Moon, 5^th sub lord will be Mars, 6^th sub lord will be Rahu, 7^th sub lord will be Jupiter, 8^th sub lord will be Saturn & finally 9^th sub lord will be Mercury.

Now:


	7×800
Area of Sub lord Ketu	=————————– =	46’40”
	120

	20×800
Area of Sub Lord Venus	=————————– =	133’20”=2°13’20”
	120

	6×800
Area of sub lord Sun	=————————– =	40’00”
	120

	10×800
Area of Sub lord Moon	=————————– =	66.66’=1°06’40”
	120

	7×800
Area of Sub lord Mars	=————————– =	46’40”
	120

	18×800
Area of sub lord	=————————– =	120’=2°00’00”
	120

	16×800
Area of sub lord Jupiter	=————————– =	106.66’=1°46’40”
	120

	19×800
Area of sub lord Saturn	=————————– =	126.66’=2°06’40”
	120

	17×800
Area of sub lord Mercury	=————————– =	113.33’=1°53’20”
	120

Now we shall write as below:

Nak. Lord	Sub Lord	°	‘	“	TO	°	‘	“
KETU	KETU	00	00	00		00	46	40
	VENUS	46	40	00		3	00	00
	SUN	3	00	00		3	40	00
	MOON	3	40	00		4	46	40
	MARS	4	46	00		5	33	20
	RAHU	5	33	20		7	33	20
	JUPITER	7	33	20		9	20	00
	SATRUN	9	20	00		11	26	40
	MERCURY	11	26	40		13	20	00

And in this way, we shall divide all 27 Nakshatras in 9 unequal divisions and for your convenience a readymade or ready reckoner annexure is given at following page:
